R. F. Kuang's debut novel, The Poppy War, launched a gripping trilogy centered on Rin, a war orphan discovering her shamanic powers at a military academy. Set against the backdrop of significant historical Chinese events, the series delves into dark and violent themes, juxtaposing the protagonist's moral ambiguity with the brutality of war. Available at discounted prices, both as ebooks and physical copies, the trilogy has received acclaim for its depth and complexity, with Kuang being recognized as a leading voice in contemporary fantasy literature, especially after her recent award-winning works.
If you haven't yet read Kuang's Poppy War trilogy and want to join me in my fandom, Amazon is offering the entire series on Kindle for only $3.99.
The trilogy is boldly violent, brutal, and grim, yet utterly compelling and hard to put down.
Following her journey will pull you between rooting for her, fearing her, and fearing that rooting for her at all makes you somewhat complicit in her actions.
In the years since The Poppy War was released in 2018, Kuang has established herself as one of the top names in publishing.
